Angelou

Famous quotes containing the word angelou:

“Stories of law violations are weighed on a different set of scales in the Black mind than in the white. Petty crimes embarrass the community and many people wistfully wonder why Negroes don’t rob more banks, embezzle more funds and employ graft in the unions.... This ... appeals particularly to one who is unable to compete legally with his fellow citizens.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

“Life loves the liver of it.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
